Anglican

No, because Ash Wednesday as we now know it did not exist then.

The Prayer recited at Mass that is a summary of our beliefs is the Nicene Creed:http://www.usccb.org/beliefs-and-teachings/what-we-believe/

Baptist clergy are called Ministers or Pastors usually and there's nothing against marriage :)

The vast majority of Protestants do not believe in purgatory.

The historical reason for this is twofold. First, the idea of purgatory was a contributing factor in the corruption of the Church in selling indulgences which led to Martin Luther nailing his theses to the church door at Wittenberg, thus beginning the Reformation.

Second, the idea pf Purgatory, Protestants believe, is unBiblical; there is no evidence scripturally that Purgatory exists. On the contrary, they regard Purgatory as against everything Christ stood for, his teachings, his idea of salvation by faith in him alone, and not by what we - or anyone else - can do, say - or pay.

As Protestants seem to place a greater emphasis on evidential scripture and less on the (what they see as man-made) teachings of the Church, the vast majority cannot accept Purgatory to have any basis in fact whatsoever.

The Anglican Church (which began with the Church of England) IS a Protestant church, according to its basis of faith (the 39 Articles). Much Anglo-Catholic practice contradicts these articles.

The prefix "inter" means "between" or "among". Denomination usually refer to the various Christian (usually not Catholic) denominations such as Presbyterian, Baptist, AoG etc. So an interdenominational church would include people from various denominations with all the various emphasis of beliefs. That is, emphasis of beliefs that distinguish denominations. There is a common set of essential doctrines amongst the denominations that enable this to occur. The interdenominational church finds unity in this common set of essential doctrines.

The Anglican Church, also called the Church of England, was started by Henry VIII was refused a divorce from his second wife Anne Boleyn by Pope Clement VII

Henry was refused an annulment but he did not found any Church, that is an error at the least.

The Anglican Church was the Catholic Church in Britain and its foundation was in Jerusalem in the Upper Room,[Acts.] . It was brought to Britain within a short while of the events recorded there and S.Dorotheus of Tyre, [S.& Martyr,] tells us it was brought by S.Simon Zelotes, Brother of Our Lord and the first Bishop was Aristobulos, friend of S.Paul , [Ep.Romans,] and brother of S. Bartholomew the Apostle!

It's just Catholic, not Roman Catholic. Roman is an epithet first commonly used in England after the protestant revolt to describe the Catholic Church. It is never used by the official Catholic Church.

The "headquarters" of each particular Catholic Church is in its Cathedral, thus each diocese is a "particular Church" headed by a Bishop (or Archbishop). There really is no such thing as the Catholic Church in England, as such, there is the Catholic Church of Westminster, the Catholic Church of York, etc. However, you are probably looking for the Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster, as he is considered the first of the Bishops of England. His see is in Westminster Cathedral in London.

Yes they can - and I know this from experience as I am married to a vicar! In the Anglican Church both men and women can become vicars, and can get married. My wife has been a vicar in two parishes. Our latest parish also has a Methodist minister, who is female and married. In our first parish there was a Baptist minister - and he was married too. Most, if not all, Protestant churches allow their clergy to marry. The two main denominations that do not allow their clergy to marry are some parts of the Orthodox Church and the Roman Catholic Church. However, in the RC church there are some campaigns to allow clergy to marry. In England this had a lot of publicity after the Church of England agreed to allow women to become priests (and hence vicars) with the first ordained in the 1990s. A small number of Church of England clergy, opposed to women's ministry, 'defected' to Rome, and, after retraining, became priests in the RC church. Many of these were already married with families (as they were former Church of England vicars) and were still allowed to practise within the RC Church. Many then felt that the celibacy of the priesthood had been breached once-and-for-all, and as there was no divine 'retribution' for such an act, a call for celibacy to be optional in the RC church was made. There have been no decisions either way as yet, but there are still a large number who believe that married RC priests would not only be acceptable but also beneficial to the church.

The country that influenced Christianity in the U.S. was England.

Separatists! As far as I understand they were Baptists and Congregationalists!

The Calvinists, were I think, called reformers, they didn't want to form their own Church but to take over the ancient one, the Anglican Church!

well it would be hard to answer that. it really depends on what church your talking about, and what the church is about, like Christianity or Islam or Jews. but no one can really say for sure. it is always changing no mater what you were talking about

An Anglican Archbishop is typically referred to, or called, by the title and his last name. Example - Anglican Archbishop Diarmuid Martin of Dublin would be referred to as 'Archbishop Martin'.

There no 'code' as such. From the death of Henry VIII (1547) till Elizabeth I came to the throne in 1558 there was religious chaos in England. In the early years of her reign a compromise, often referred to as the Elizabethan Settlement, was worked out to keep most groups within the Church of England. It tried to steer a middle course between Calvinism and something closer to Catholicism. Various laws were then assed requiring conformity with the settlement and placing those who didn't accept at a disadvantage. For example, everyone was required to attend the parish church or be fined. The more senior Anglican bishops continued to sit in the House of Lords, and so on. (Roman Catholics, who gave allegiance to the Pope, were regarded as beyond the pale). The Elizabethan Settlement gave England a period of peace in matters of religion, but began to show the first signs of cracking under her successor and under Charles I they became very serious and were one of the key factors leading to the English Civil War.

'Anglican' religion is the religion of the Church of England, which is a Reformed Catholic faith that acknowledges the King or Queen as the head of the church, not the Pope. It was formed in 1534 by King Henry VIII.

There are a variety of differences between the three denominations mentioned. The large difference between Roman Catholicism and the Church of England (Anglican, Episcopal) is their differing belief in the sacraments. For instance, when referring to the Holy Communion, Catholics believe in transubstantiation, that is to say , they believe that spiritually it takes the form of Jesus Christ's body and blood whereas Anglicans believe that the communion only represents it.

The Anglican Church directly split from Catholicism. Baptists are often considered Protestant, though there are Baptists who say they tried to restore Apostolic Christianity and may disagree with the notion that St. Peter was the first pope. Baptists don't have priests. As for authority or rank, Baptists are either independent, or they answer loosely to a Baptist association.

Now obviously, all 3 denominations claim to be Christian and all believe in Jesus, though perhaps in a slightly different way. Roman Catholic and Episcopal are very close and mostly split over the marriage issue, where Episcopal priests can marry while Catholic priests cannot. Outside of that and the differing beliefs about sacraments, they are essentially the same denomination.

The speaker giving the sermon uses it to put his Bible, sermon notes, and other reference materials on to help keep the message on course in the limited amount of time allotted for the sermon.
